Cmd Line: How to list installed App Version?
Hi,
How do I list all installed applications, version, etc using a command line?
(some thing similar to the GUI-About This Mac, more info, Software, Applications). I also know ls -la /Applications.
I like to get a complete inventory of installed software using a command line.
Thanks,
Uday.
Hi
I think this command should give you what you want?
system_profiler SPApplicationsDataType
You could also use any one of these three:
system_profiler -detaiLevel level
Where 'level' would be mini, basic or full. The manual pages will have more information; man system_profiler.
To see what other options (data types) system_profiler has available issue:
system_profiler -listdatatypes

How do I install English versions of my Creative Cloud apps instead of Portuguese?
I am a Creative Cloud subscriber and live in Guam. When I downloaded all of my desktop apps, half of them were the Portuguese version (even all of the file names are in Portuguese). How do I install English versions instead?
I'm running Mac OS X 10.7.4.Go to your Adobe Application Manager located in the Applications folder. Once there launch the Adobe Application Manager and click on your name in the top left hand corner. You will then want to choose the Preferences option to adjust your language.

How do i install latest version of iTunes when I keep getting an error message to go to Tools, Download only, and install manually??
Hi Moerdesign,
Did you downloaded and installed Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 through Creative Cloud.
After uninstalled them, Creative Cloud saying applications are "Up to Date" when not installed.
If this is the case then please perform the steps given in the help document.

Please let me know if this is not the case.
Screenshot of the problem would be great help.

"one app installed by company"
The last app is needed for when I do work. It doesn't need to run on the background. When I'm doing work, I need to input some information in that app, and sync it to my company's server.
I would like to install some apps (free) of my choosing. But I'm coming across a hurdle...
I choose "App Store" in Home.
I search for a free App (for example the Google Search app by Google Inc)
I'm taken to the app's info screen. I tap the blue "Free" button.
The button becomes a green "Install App" button.
I get a pop-up box saying
Apple ID password
[email protected]
[password]
How can I install apps of my choosing without having a "work app" get deleted? This work app was installed on the "[email protected]" Apple ID.
Thank you.Ingo2711, when you did this:
I logged out of my AppleID on the iPod, took it to his computer, synced it, which erased all of my apps. I installed the default apps plus one app that he bought using his account info.
You made his computer the syncing computer.
When you did this:
Connected to my Mac and iTunes and tried to sync one of the apps I bought with my account. The app shows up on one of the pages before you start the sync, but once you apply the sync, it does not transfer.
And, of cause, no restrictions set at all.
You changed syncing computers but you can only sync apps (and some other things like photos) from only your one syncing computer. -
How do I install iTunes version 10.0?
I don't like the latest version of iTunes. How do I install iTunes version 10.0?
The main differences between iTunes 11 and earlier versions are the loss of coverflow and ability to have multiple windows open.
In Windows, you can restore much of the look & feel of iTunes 10.7 with these shortcuts:
ALT to temporarily display the menu bar
CTRL+B to show or hide the menu bar
CTRL+S to show or hide the sidebar
CTRL+/ to show or hide the status bar (won't hide for me on Win XP)
Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
If you don't like having different coloured background & text in the Album (Grid) view use Edit > Preferences > General and untick Use custom colours for open albums, movies, etc.
With iTunes 11.0.3 and later you can enable artwork in the Songs view from View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) making it more like the old Album List view
View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) also contains options to change the sorting of grid based views
N.b. iOS 7 requires iTunes 11.1 or later. Do not downgrade iTunes if you have already upgraded your iOS devices...
If you feel the need to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and supporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

I have an older Ipod touch with 4.2.1 and cannot be updated any further, how do I install apps on it now? so far every app I have tried says I need an updated IOS. This sounds like I now have an apple product paper weight unless I want to run out and buy the latest and greatest overpriced apple product.
Are you willing to buy a newer iPod? How about the 4g @ 16gb for $199* usd or the 5g @ 32gb for $299*.

HT201304 How do I install apps without the app store
How do I install apps without the app store
This is an issue not to be taken lightly. I just upgraded to Mavericks. My two favorite amateur radio apps will not launch because they did not come from the App Store. There must be a way to make them work. Come on, let's have it. Ohh, the apps: DVTool for DStar Radio operation, and echomac for amateur radio repeater connection from a Mac. These are essential amateur radio applications used in emergency radio communications ... ARES.

i have an ipod touch 8gb model number MA623LL. How do I install apps on my ipod? Is it capable of transferring/running apps? Why doesn't my ipod touch have the basic-beginning app on the beginning screen after i erased/wiped my ipod and started new?
Googling shows that you have the 1G iPod. For apps you need at least iOS 2. The iG can go as far os 3.1.3 that you get here:
Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)
Just be aware that there are presently not that many apps that work with a 1G with iOS 3.1.3 -
How do I install apps not approved by apple on iphone 4s?
I mean how do I install apps like grooveshark, openvpn, my3g, etc. Today there's no jailbreak for iphone 4s, but I need a way to get the apps I used to use. I don't why apple don't accept certain kinds of apps. The users have the right to install whatever they want on their devices, even another music store different than itunes.
You have a perfect legal right to do so ... But Apple has a legal right to deny warranty coverage and support to you if you do it. :-) as you said, you'll have to wait ...

How do you install apps that says waiting
How do I install apps that say waiting that wont budge
If the apps are downloaded from the App Store, connect to WIFI network and click on the app, make sure your iPhone is charging and keep moving the screen so it wont go on stand by.
When it says loading and you see the bar loading you can just leave your iPhone alone and wait until it's downloaded. -
How do you install earlier versions of Firefox, specifically 1.5 or 2.0?
I need Firefox 1.5 or 2.0 because it is the only version compatible with what I need but it will only let me install the latest version. How do I install earlier versions?
On A Mac you can only install one Firefox version at the time.
So if you really need an older version then try the portable version:
